GalaxyCon Announces Online Auction Benefiting Mike McFarland

(Ft. Lauderdale, FL) – Jan. 22 2025 - GalaxyCon, the largest independently owned consumer fan engagement company, is honored to announce an online auction benefiting Mike McFarland, the gifted voice actor who brought beloved anime characters like Master Roshi (Dragon Ball), Buggy (One Piece), and Jean Kirstein (Attack on Titan) to life.

McFarland is currently recovering from emergency surgery to remove a brain tumor. The procedure was successful, but to support his ongoing care and recovery, GalaxyCon is hosting an online benefit auction on its eBay store: https://galaxycon.info/MMcFarlandAuctionfb

The auction includes a variety of anime collectibles, memorabilia, and artwork up for bidding. Every contribution, big or small, will make a meaningful difference, and we invite the anime community to come together and help us raise funds for this important cause. Proceeds will go toward hiring a live-in medical assistant for as long as necessary to help get this acting legend back on his feet.
